DESCRIPCIÓN DESCRIPTION
Campo de la invención Field of the invention
La industria de fabricación de prendas de vestir y calzado depende de varios recursos, procesos y equipos para producir productos terminados (prendas de ropa, complementos, calzado, etc.). Generalmente el proceso de fabricación de estos elementos incluye el diseño y corte de los patrones necesarios para generar el producto mediante el uso de telas o pieles naturales o sintéticas que en algún momento formarán parte del producto manufacturado. El corte de estos paneles se puede hacer de forma manual o automática mediante el uso de mesas de corte de control numérico pero incluso en el segundo caso, se requiere de la intervención de un operario para separar las piezas diseñadas del panel que las contenía. La presente invención se refiere a una mesa de corte por control numérico que permite la extracción de las piezas cortadas de una manera automática, sin intervención de un operario, provista de un control numérico o unidad de cálculo con un circuito y el código de programa para controlar la máquina de corte, que comprende una unidad de almacenamiento para almacenar instrucciones de las piezas o patrones a cortar y del proceso de control necesario para separarlos. La mesa de corte por control numérico es de aplicación en la industria textil, cuero natural y sintético, composites, etc., en general, en cualquier industria que requiera del corte de un panel flexible, en láminas independientes o prevenientes de un rollo continuo, que ha de ser posteriormente utilizado para generar un producto. The apparel and footwear manufacturing industry relies on various resources, processes, and equipment to produce finished products (apparel, accessories, footwear, etc.). Generally, the manufacturing process of these elements includes the design and cutting of the necessary patterns to generate the product through the use of natural or synthetic fabrics or leathers that at some point will be part of the manufactured product. These panels can be cut manually or automatically through the use of numerical control cutting tables, but even in the second case, the intervention of an operator is required to separate the designed pieces from the panel that contained them. The present invention refers to a numerical control cutting table that allows the extraction of the cut pieces in an automatic way, without the intervention of an operator, provided with a numerical control or calculation unit with a circuit and the program code for controlling the cutting machine, which comprises a storage unit for storing instructions for the pieces or patterns to be cut and for the control process necessary to separate them.

Antecedentes de la invención Background of the invention
Existen diferentes patentes asociadas a la fabricación automática de prendas de ropa o calzado y a la fabricación bajo demanda de las mismas para personalizar el producto según las necesidades o los gustos del cliente. Este es el caso del documento US9623578B1 que describe el procedimiento y equipos para la confección de prendas bajo pedido. En este caso, se sustituye el corte del tejido que conformará el producto por la impresión del mismo. Salvo en el caso de impresión de tejido, los productos se fabrican cortando de una lámina de material las piezas que los conformarán. Este corte se puede realizar de forma manual, semiautomática o completamente automática mediante el uso de mesas de corte de control numérico. There are different patents associated with the automatic manufacture of clothing or footwear and the manufacture on demand thereof to customize the product according to the needs or tastes of the client. This is the case of document US9623578B1 that describes the procedure and equipment for making garments to order. In this case, the cut of the fabric that will make up the product is replaced by the printing of the same. Except in the case of fabric printing, the products are manufactured by cutting the pieces that will make them up from a sheet of material. This cut can be done manually, semi-automatically or fully automatic. by using numerical control cutting tables.
Las mesas de corte por control numérico conocidas en el estado de la técnica cuentan con una superficie de apoyo sobre la que se sitúa una plancha a cortar, o una serie de capas superpuestas sobre las que actúa un cabezal de corte. El cabezal de corte está controlado por un sistema de control numérico, y requiere de un puente móvil en dos ejes sobre el que se apoya en su desplazamiento sobre la base plana de la máquina. The numerical control cutting tables known in the state of the art have a support surface on which a plate to be cut is placed, or a series of superimposed layers on which a cutting head acts. The cutting head is controlled by a numerical control system, and requires a two-axis mobile bridge on which it rests in its movement on the flat base of the machine.
El cabezal corta las piezas con la forma requerida sobre la plancha completa (o superposición de varias planchas) extendida sobre la superficie de corte, de modo que una vez se han cortado dichas piezas finales, se requiere del trabajo de un operario para que de manera manual las extraiga manualmente de la plancha de material. The head cuts the pieces with the required shape on the complete plate (or superposition of several plates) extended on the cutting surface, so that once said final pieces have been cut, the work of an operator is required so that in such a way manually remove them manually from the media plate.
Las mesas realizan el corte del material con una precisión elevada, pero al finalizar el trabajo de corte las piezas están en muchas ocasiones parcialmente unidas a la lámina de la que se extraen, de forma que las mesas de corte por control numérico tradicionales obligan a realizar la retirada de piezas de forma manual cuando el trabajo de corte del cabezal ha finalizado. The tables perform the cutting of the material with high precision, but at the end of the cutting work the pieces are in many cases partially joined to the sheet from which they are extracted, in such a way that traditional numerical control cutting tables make it necessary to perform removing parts manually when the head cutting job is finished.
Teniendo en cuenta lo anterior, el trabajo de corte de las mesas de control numérico conocidas en el estado de la técnica requiere siempre de la presencia de un operario cuyos tiempos de inactividad son elevados ya que una vez se ha emplazado la plancha de material o la superposición de ellas, sólo puede esperar a que el cabezal de corte acabe su trabajo para separar las piezas cortadas del sobrante de material. Una vez se ha retirado el material ya cortado, se vuelve a empezar otra vez el mismo ciclo de trabajo con una plancha única o un conjunto de ellas. Taking into account the above, the cutting work of the numerical control tables known in the state of the art always requires the presence of an operator whose downtime is high since once the material plate or the overlapping them, you can only wait for the cutting head to finish its work to separate the cut pieces from the excess material. Once the material already cut has been removed, the same work cycle is started again with a single plate or a set of them.

Descripción detallada de la invención Detailed description of the invention
A la vista de lo anteriormente enunciado y haciendo referencia a la numeración adoptada en las figuras, el objeto de la invención es una mesa de corte por control numérico que cuenta con una superficie de corte (1) configurada para recibir sobre ella al menos una lámina (4), a partir de la cual se obtienen una o varias piezas diseñadas (2) realizando al menos un corte sobre la citada lámina (4), mediante un cabezal de corte (3) que es manejado por un elemento programable o control numérico, siendo estos elementos conocidos en el estado de la técnica. In view of the foregoing and referring to the numbering adopted in the figures, the object of the invention is a cutting table by numerical control that has a cutting surface (1) configured to receive on it at least one sheet (4), from which one or more designed pieces are obtained (2) by making at least one cut on said sheet (4), by means of a cutting head (3) that is managed by a programmable element or numerical control , these elements being known in the state of the art.
El cabezal de corte (3) se desplaza a lo largo y ancho de la superficie de corte (1) de la mesa de corte objeto de la invención, siguiendo las instrucciones de un elemento programable y realizando el corte de las piezas diseñadas (2) sobre la lámina o láminas (4) emplazadas sobre la citada superficie de corte (1), y dejando un sobrante (7) que es material de desecho, que debe ser retirado. The cutting head (3) moves along the length and width of the cutting surface (1) of the cutting table object of the invention, following the instructions of a programmable element and cutting the designed pieces (2) on the sheet or sheets (4) located on said cutting surface (1), and leaving a surplus (7) that is waste material, which must be removed.
Una vez cortada la pieza o piezas diseñadas (2), el elemento programable de la mesa de corte objeto de la invención determina qué pieza o piezas diseñadas (2) han de quedar adheridas a la superficie de corte (1) y que áreas pertenecen al material sobrante (7) y han de quedar adheridas a la superficie adicional. Once the designed piece or pieces (2) have been cut, the programmable element of the cutting table object of the invention determines which designed piece or pieces (2) have to be adhered to the cutting surface (1) and which areas belong to the excess material (7) and must adhere to the additional surface.
La lámina (4) o conjunto de láminas superpuestas, que se sitúan sobre la superficie de corte (1) en la mesa de corte por control numérico objeto de la invención, pueden ser de distintos materiales, por ejemplo láminas textiles o de fibra de vidrio o carbono para composites, en las que no tiene importancia la cara de la lámina (4) que se enfrenta al cabezal de corte (3) o aquella cara sobre la que se fija un elemento extractor del sobrante (7) porque el material es capaz de soportar que se clave un elemento en él y recupera sus características técnicas y/o estéticas originales. La lámina (4) a ser cortada puede tener caras diferenciadas, como es el caso de la piel o cuero, tanto natural como sintético, que tienen una cara vista (5) y una cara no vista (6) en el producto final, tal que sobre la cara vista (5) no se puede actuar y es necesario limitar las acciones en la cara vista (5) a las zonas de sobrante (7), puesto que estas acciones sobre la cara vista (5) dañan el material de forma irreversible. The sheet (4) or set of superimposed sheets, which are placed on the cutting surface (1) in the cutting table by numerical control object of the invention, can be of different materials, for example textile sheets or fiberglass or carbon for composites, in which the face of the sheet (4) that faces the cutting head (3) or that face on which an extractor element of the excess (7) is fixed is not important because the material is capable of to withstand an element being nailed into it and recover its original technical and / or aesthetic characteristics. The sheet (4) to be cut may have differentiated faces, as is the case of leather or leather, both natural and synthetic, which have a visible face (5) and an unseen face (6) in the final product, such as that on the visible face (5) it is not possible to act and it is necessary to limit the actions in the visible face (5) to the excess areas (7), since these actions on the visible face (5) damage the material irreversibly.
En el caso de láminas (4) de piel o cuero tanto natural como sintético, la cara vista (5) se denomina flor y la cara no vista (6) se denomina carne, de forma que, para proceder a su separación, la cara vista (5) de la lámina (4) no se puede dañar, para que el resultado sea una pieza diseñada (2) con la cara vista (5) intacta. La cara no vista (6) es la cara de la lámina (4) sobre la que se puede agarrar para proceder a su separación del sobrante (7), de modo que la cara no vista (6) puede ser agarrada siempre que desde ese lado no se dañe por perforación la cara vista (5). La sujeción del sobrante (7) desde la cara vista (5) se realiza perforando la citada cara y por lo tanto dañándola, pero este material es sobrante o desecho en el proceso de obtención de piezas diseñadas (2). La sujeción de las piezas diseñadas (2) se realiza desde la cara no vista (6), de forma que no se daña la cara vista (5) de las piezas diseñadas (2) en la lámina (4) por lo que no afecta a la calidad de las citadas piezas diseñadas (2) en el producto final. In the case of sheets (4) of skin or leather, both natural and synthetic, the visible side (5) is called flower and the unseen side (6) is called meat, so that, to proceed with its separation, the face View (5) of the sheet (4) cannot be damaged, so that the result is a designed piece (2) with the visible face (5) intact. The unseen face (6) is the face of the sheet (4) on which it can be grasped to proceed with its separation from the excess (7), so that the unseen face (6) can be grasped as long as from that side is not damaged by drilling the visible face (5). The subjection of the excess (7) from the visible face (5) is carried out by drilling the said face and therefore damaging it, but this material is excess or waste in the process of obtaining designed parts (2).

Once the designed piece or pieces (2) have been cut by the cutting head (3), the programmable element of the cutting table object of the invention determines that main clamping elements (8) or additional clamping elements (9) have to be actuated and to what extent to clamp the designed parts (2) and the excess material (7) to the cutting surface (1) and to the additional surface (14) respectively or vice versa so that both can be separated by relative displacement of the surfaces that contain them.
Respecto los elementos de sujeción adicionales (9), se pueden localizar sobre un rodillo (10) o sobre una superficie adicional (14) plana o no situada opuesta a la superficie de corte (1) tal que la superficie adicional (14) junto con la superficie de corte (1) funciona como una prensa, es decir la superficie adicional (14) se desplaza hacia la superficie de corte (1) para, mediante los elementos de sujeción adicionales (9), fijar al sobrante (7), y en un movimiento de separación de la superficie adicional (14) respecto la superficie de corte (1) retirar el citado sobrante (7) dejando las piezas diseñadas (2) sobre la superficie de corte (1). Regarding the additional fastening elements (9), they can be located on a roller (10) or on an additional surface (14) flat or not located opposite the cutting surface (1) such that the additional surface (14) together with the cutting surface (1) functions as a press, that is, the additional surface (14) moves towards the cutting surface (1) to, by means of the additional fastening elements (9), fix the surplus (7), and In a movement of separation of the additional surface (14) with respect to the cutting surface (1), remove said excess (7) leaving the designed pieces (2) on the cutting surface (1).
En una realización de la invención, tanto la superficie de corte (1) como la superficie adicional (14) situada opuesta a la superficie de corte (1), son dos superficies planas, que se enfrentan y complementan, sin embargo, esta realización no es limitativa, puesto que las superficies de corte (1) y adicional (14) pueden no ser planas y seguir cumpliendo su función. In one embodiment of the invention, both the cutting surface (1) and the additional surface (14) located opposite the cutting surface (1), are two flat surfaces, which face and complement each other, however, this embodiment does not It is limiting, since the cutting surfaces (1) and additional (14) may not be flat and continue to fulfill their function.
En la realización de la invención, tanto los elementos de sujeción principales (8) como los elementos de sujeción adicionales (9) comprenden elementos retráctiles, que pueden tener diferentes realizaciones. In the embodiment of the invention, both the main fastening elements (8) and the additional fastening elements (9) comprise retractable elements, which can have different embodiments.
En el movimiento de retirada del sobrante (7) los elementos de sujeción adicionales (9) pueden atravesar la cara vista (5) y la cara no vista (6) de la lámina (4) en caso de que esta sea de piel o cuero natural o sintético, puesto que este es material de desecho. En una realización alternativa de la invención, los elementos de sujeción principales (8) están localizados bien sobre el rodillo (10) o bien sobre la superficie adicional (14) y los elementos de sujeción adicionales (9) están localizados sobre la superficie de corte (1), de modo que el rodillo (10) o la superficie adicional (14) retiran las piezas diseñadas (2) del sobrante (7) que queda adherido a la superficie de corte (1). En esta realización de la máquina objeto de la invención, durante el corte de la lámina (4), es necesario que la lámina (4) esté apoyada sobre la superficie de corte (1) por su cara vista (5) y deje enfrentada al rodillo (10) o a la superficie adicional (14) la cara no vista (6). In the removal movement of the excess (7) the additional fastening elements (9) can pass through the visible face (5) and the unseen face (6) of the sheet (4) in case it is made of leather or leather natural or synthetic, since this is waste material. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the main clamping elements (8) are located either on the roller (10) or on the additional surface (14) and the additional clamping elements (9) are located on the cutting surface. (1), so that the roller (10) or the additional surface (14) removes the designed parts (2) from the excess (7) that remains adhered to the cutting surface (1). In this embodiment of the machine object of the invention, during the cutting of the sheet (4), it is necessary that the The sheet (4) is supported on the cutting surface (1) by its visible face (5) and leaves the non-visible face (6) facing the roller (10) or the additional surface (14).
En una realización, todos o parte de los elementos de sujeción principales y/o adicionales poseen elementos retráctiles curvos o rectos, con dos posiciones extremas, una posición retraída, en la que no sobresalen de la superficie de corte (1), de la superficie adicional (14) o del rodillo (10) y una posición extendida, en la que sí sobresalen de la superficie de corte (1), de la superficie adicional (14) o del rodillo (10). En otra realización, todos o parte de los elementos de sujeción principales y/o adicionales poseen elementos retráctiles curvos o rectos, con posiciones intermedias de salida de la superficie de corte (1) o de la superficie adicional (14) de forma que salen parcialmente de las citadas superficies gracias a la acción del mecanismo de empuje y retracción mecánico o electromecánico (13) y siguiendo las instrucciones contenidas en la memoria del elemento programable de la mesa de corte por control numérico. In one embodiment, all or part of the main and / or additional fastening elements have curved or straight retractable elements, with two extreme positions, a retracted position, in which they do not protrude from the cutting surface (1), from the surface additional (14) or the roller (10) and an extended position, in which they do protrude from the cutting surface (1), from the additional surface (14) or from the roller (10). In another embodiment, all or part of the main and / or additional fastening elements have curved or straight retractable elements, with intermediate exit positions of the cutting surface (1) or of the additional surface (14) so that they partially exit of the aforementioned surfaces thanks to the action of the mechanical or electromechanical push and retraction mechanism (13) and following the instructions contained in the memory of the programmable element of the numerical control cutting table.
Es posible variar la distancia que salen los elementos retráctiles curvos o rectos o de los filamentos curvos, ya que dicha distancia puede depender del espesor de la lámina (4) que se va a cortar en la mesa de corte por control numérico objeto de la invención. Esta particularidad está asociada con el caso de que alguna lámina (4) de material delgado pudiera ser dañada en su cara vista (5) entrando los elementos retráctiles curvos o rectos por su cara no vista (6), mientras que, como ya se ha expuesto, en el sobrante (7) no importa si la cara vista (5) se atraviesa o no, ya que es material de desecho que se tira o se recicla. La distancia de salida de las agujas rectas (15), de las agujas curvadas (12) o de los filamentos curvados (17) se realiza mediante el control del mecanismo de empuje y retracción mecánico o electromecánico (13) que realiza el elemento programable de la mesa de corte por control numérico objeto de la invención. It is possible to vary the distance that the curved or straight retractable elements or the curved filaments come out, since said distance may depend on the thickness of the sheet (4) to be cut on the cutting table by numerical control object of the invention. . This particularity is associated with the case that a sheet (4) of thin material could be damaged on its visible face (5) by entering the curved or straight retractable elements through its non-visible face (6), while, as already mentioned Exposed, in the excess (7) it does not matter if the visible face (5) is crossed or not, since it is waste material that is thrown away or recycled. The exit distance of the straight needles (15), of the curved needles (12) or of the curved filaments (17) is carried out by means of the control of the mechanical or electromechanical push and retraction mechanism (13) carried out by the programmable element of the cutting table by numerical control object of the invention.
En una realización de la invención, los elementos retráctiles se localizan en módulos (11) distribuidos en la superficie de corte (1), en la superficie adicional (14) o en el rodilloIn an embodiment of the invention, the retractable elements are located in modules (11) distributed on the cutting surface (1), on the additional surface (14) or on the roller
(10) de modo que si alguno de los módulos (11) presenta un fallo, su reemplazo es sencillo puesto que se sustituye un módulo (11) sin interferir en los demás módulos (11) de elementos retráctiles curvos o rectos. Existen varias realizaciones de los elementos retráctiles que se detallan a continuación, y que junto con los demás elementos que se citan, configuran distintos módulos (11) de la mesa de corte objeto de la invención: pueden ser agujas curvadas (12) con un mecanismo de empuje y retracción mecánico o electromecánico (13); pueden ser agujas rectas (15) que salen con una inclinación respecto la superficie desde la que salen, que cuentan con un mecanismo de empuje y retracción mecánico o electromecánico (13) y un resorte (16) o cualquier otro mecanismo para permitir su retroceso; y pueden ser también uno o más filamentos curvados (17) alojados en un casquillo (18) rodeado por un material flexible en forma de acordeón (19) o de cualquier otra forma, con un mecanismo de empuje o mecánico o electromecánico (13) que extrae total o parcialmente los filamentos curvados (17) del casquillo (18) en posición extendida. (10) so that if any of the modules (11) has a failure, its replacement is simple since one module (11) is replaced without interfering with the other modules (11) of curved or straight retractable elements. There are several embodiments of the retractable elements that are detailed below, and that together with the other elements mentioned, configure different modules (11) of the cutting table object of the invention: they can be curved needles (12) with a mechanism mechanical or electromechanical push and retraction (13); They can be straight needles (15) that come out with an inclination with respect to the surface from which they come out, which have a mechanical or electromechanical push and retraction mechanism (13) and a spring (16) or any other mechanism to allow their return; and they can also be one or more curved filaments (17) housed in a bushing (18) surrounded by a flexible material in the form of an accordion (19) or in any other way, with a push mechanism or mechanical or electromechanical (13) that it totally or partially extracts the curved filaments (17) from the bushing (18) in the extended position.
A la vista de lo anterior la mesa de corte por control numérico puede tener módulos portadores de elementos retráctiles (11) interconectados mecánicamente entre sí de forma que una fuerza aplicada por un mecanismos de empuje mecánico o electromecánico (13) genera también la salida de uno o más filamentos curvados (17) de los elementos adyacentes de forma inversamente proporcional a la distancia que separa a cada uno de ellos del mecanismo empujado. In view of the above, the cutting table by numerical control can have retractable element carrier modules (11) mechanically interconnected with each other so that a force applied by a mechanical or electromechanical push mechanism (13) also generates the output of one. or more curved filaments (17) of the adjacent elements inversely proportional to the distance that separates each of them from the pushed mechanism.
Cada mecanismo de empuje y retracción mecánico o electromecánico (13) puede extraer las agujas curvadas (12) o agujas rectas (15) o los filamentos curvados (17) una determinada distancia dependiente del espesor de la lámina de material a ser cortadoEach mechanical or electromechanical push and retraction mechanism (13) can extract the curved needles (12) or straight needles (15) or the curved filaments (17) a certain distance depending on the thickness of the sheet of material to be cut
(4) de forma que la lámina de material a ser cortado (4) no se traspase por su cara vista(4) so that the sheet of material to be cut (4) does not pass through its visible face
(5) cuando se esté sujetando la lámina de material a ser cortado (4) desde su cara no vista (6). (5) when the sheet of material to be cut is being held (4) from its unseen side (6).
La regulación de la salida de las agujas curvadas (12) o agujas rectas (15) o los filamentos curvados (17) se puede realizar de forma manual ajustando los topes de movimiento de los actuadores correspondientes o de forma automática, cerrando el lazo de control del actuador mediante el uso de un sensor que permita conocer su posición en cada momento. Estos elementos son conocidos en el estado de la técnica. El nivel de salida de las agujas curvadas (12) o rectas (15) o los filamentos curvados (17) se establece de forma previa, conocidas las características de la lámina de material a ser cortado (4) y en función del espesor de ésta mediante un elemento programable que contiene la citada información. The regulation of the output of the curved needles (12) or straight needles (15) or the curved filaments (17) can be done manually by adjusting the movement stops of the corresponding actuators or automatically, by closing the control loop of the actuator by using a sensor that allows knowing its position at all times. These elements are known in the state of the art. The output level of the curved (12) or straight (15) needles or the curved filaments (17) is established in advance, knowing the characteristics of the sheet of material to be cut (4) and depending on its thickness by means of a programmable element that contains the aforementioned information.
Los filamentos curvados (17) alojados en el casquillo (18) tienen una curvatura tal que cuando salen del casquillo (18) los filamentos se clavan en la cara no vista (6) de la lámina (4) de forma que no atraviesa la cara vista (5), realizando la sujeción de la lámina (4) sin dañar la citada cara vista (5) de la pieza diseñada (2). The curved filaments (17) housed in the bushing (18) have a curvature such that when they come out of the bushing (18) the filaments stick into the unseen face (6) of the sheet (4) so that they do not cross the face view (5), holding the sheet (4) without damaging the aforementioned visible face (5) of the designed part (2).
La realización de elementos retráctiles formada por uno o varios filamentos curvados (17), gracias al material flexible con forma de acordeón (19) localizados bien en la superficie de corte (1), bien en el rodillo (10) o bien en la superficie adicional (14) permite que los citados filamentos curvados (17) se clavan completamente sobre la lámina (4) en aquél punto donde se aplica una presión de un 100% y según se aleja la lámina (4) del punto de aplicación de esta fuerza, se reduce la presión ejercida sobre el elemento retráctil dado que una malla transmite la fuerza aplicada a uno de los elementos retráctiles a sus adyacentes que saldrán un porcentaje menor del 100% a medida que se aleje del elemento donde se ha aplicado la fuerza máxima. The realization of retractable elements formed by one or more curved filaments (17), thanks to the flexible accordion-shaped material (19) located either on the cutting surface (1), either on the roller (10) or on the surface Additional (14) allows the aforementioned curved filaments (17) to be completely embedded on the sheet (4) at that point where a pressure of 100% is applied and as the sheet (4) moves away from the point of application of this force , the pressure exerted on the retractable element is reduced since a mesh transmits the force applied to one of the retractable elements to its adjacent ones, which will come out a percentage less than 100% as it moves away from the element where the maximum force has been applied.
